Configure ExifGlass

ExifGlass comes with a specific version of exiftool.exe file. If you want to use a newer ExifTool release, follow these steps:

1. Download ExifTool by Phil Harvey. You can also use the ExifTool Windows Installer if you prefer, which will automatically register the executable file of ExifTool on your system. ExifGlass can detect it automatically.
2. If you downloaded the ZIP file, extract its contents into a folder, rename exiftool(-k).exe to exiftool.exe.
3. Open ExifGlass Settings (press <kbd>Ctrl+,</kbd>) and go to "Executable path". Locate the exiftool.exe file that you extracted in step 2.

Integrate ExifGlass into ImageGlass 9

Please refer to ImageGlass Docs / ImageGlass tools.

[!TIP] Note that if you have installed ExifGlass Store, you can just use exifglass for the Executable field.
